Well - the title is slightly misleading, as JB is full of lovely morals. Ant on the other hand....
This week is dedicated to the art (or is it science) of story telling. Does a leader just need to communicate facts to inspire, or are we missing an element if we don't include a metaphor.
You be the judge!

As JB clears up his shed (whilst it had become a storage facility for booze for his garden book launches) we discuss 'self awareness' and a leaders role it ensuring it exists in themselves and their people.
We then debate is 'co-leadership' something that can work? Some politics has seen this, but could it translate to the workplace?

It's one of those rare episodes where 1) we let others in to the party and 2) JB has to share the mic with more than just Ant!
We're super proud of JB (ex GWR Radio PLC) along with some brilliant co-authors in William Rogers (ex CEO of UKRD) and Dave Coull (ex Group PD at UKRD) with their new book launch the 'The No Normal Leader'
In this action packed hour, the trio (along with Ant's steering) discuss the reality that covid, consolidation, politics create change. But change needs to be accepted as normal. Preparing for a 'new norm', or a holding pattern until 'a new normal' is complacency. No Normal Leadership - should be the default. "Is Covid just a rehearsal for no normal worlds" - have a listen and decide for yourself.

Democratic or Autocratic Leadership, that's the question for JB and Ant today. That, listener questions and JB's superb attempt and comparing leadership to Jesus and Debbie, Dave, Ringo & John.

JB and Ant dance around the subject of when should a leader have an opinion, vs not. Additionally, what do we do if the workforce are seemingly divided, and some are increasingly hostile to another's opinion?
That and the truth about JB's closing statements!

Hey you... yes you that keeps sending in questions. We love a question, but sometimes we'd love to hear how you got on with our answer. Write us a postcard, ANYTHING! Anyway this week, new questions plus we tackle the leadership stories of the week. This week we discuss various topics INCLUDING whether leadership can be stifled due to 'consensus by committee'. It's also sunny!! So this episode is sponsored by warmth!

It's tricky isn't it.... you know, office being home and home being the office. How do we transition between one and the other. This week, JB and Ant kick around what leaders need to do, to lead this challenge, whilst also recognising it may need some personal sacrifice, too.

All the usual joys with Ant & JB as they explore the benefits of crystal clear messages. That and a rather challenging question which JB curveballs!
